Today at noon we'll go to check out this house, it's within our price range, or almost, but it needs some pretty pricey fixing so I'm 99% sure we're not interested, but still...
It's good to go and find out what you like.
Like the tapestry in the hallway, I really like them =)
But the kitchen needs a make over badly, only the stove and the refrigerator has been changed since the house was built... So it's not just for looks, but for practicality really.

finally winter!
I thought I'd show you where my pup spends his days, this is his daycare yard, I'm in one corner, leaning on the slide, this is the longer part, where the porch meets the ground is the entrance to the house . You see the small wooden wall on the porch? That's where the daycares part ends, the part towards me belongs to the mental ward (old people with Alzheimer and such). At the far end is a corner filled with sand where the big diggers are allowed (they're not in the sandbox). Behind the fence is the door to the toy storage room.
The shorter part of the yard. Beside the playhouse is the gate in the fence where you enter the yard.
And this is the slide I was leaning on. It really is too bad that the daycare has such a small yard, it's my only issue with it, except for some personal issues but that's not relevant here.
Nupper pupper being pretty at his granddads birthday.
Moving granny's lawn... (last summer he walked after her and the red crass cutter with this, it was too cute for words)
Granny tries out my old snow racer, still fun obviously.
And me and the cutest snow monster on earth. Check out and compare with this one from last year
Someone got a haircut... I'm not thrilled, I got a bit short in front, not really anything to do about it, it was this or leave it (which looked weird with everything else cut) and it's uneven and so, but doesn't really show unless he's newly combed, which lasts about 5 seconds =)
I had to cut it, the back was always tangled and he was starting to cry every time he saw the brush/comb. It will grow back, and if it's less prone to tangle he might get to keep it.
We got ourself a new (second hand) stroller bag. It'll go to moms so I can get the flowery one home, it fit so nicely in the pram and it makes me happy just to look at it =)

new EU-laws concerning kids in cars
Svenskt inslag om de nya EU-lagarna om barn som åker i bil
Svensk filmklipp om exakt varför man ska åka bakåt så länge som möjligt.
1st clip is just a interview in Swedish, but link #2 you click the picture of a toddler and an adult in car seats, it will wanna load to your computers media player of choice, let it.
You might not understand what they say, but the images do speak very clearly... Keep your kids facing backwards!!! Broken legs are preferred over a broken neck.

a new toy
I finally got around do getting myself a new camera. So far we instantly liked each other, which didn't happen with the black sheep bought second hand a year ago. This was a necessity since the old ixus is really dying this time =( a year ago it was only half way there...
Also yesterday my pup got a Fisher Price garage, second hand. He loves it. Here follows a few test shots of the new toys =) It took me a few shots to get the settings to my liking, but pup was instantly satisfied =)

I dared, or will at least...
I have just finished an application for a job.
Not the dream job, but a job. Not really for any other reason than to get me out there, I can't just go around and rot and be miserable, it won't do. My puppy is worth more than an exhausted, unhappy dragon-bitch-mom. I have no hopes of getting it, but if I don't apply I definitely don't have any chances =)
So it is to be mailed first thing tomorrow morning, wish me luck =)
